Let's talk about the Rams
 

How hard are we going to pound these losers?

Kupp on IR, Stafford banged up....it's time for our yearly beatdown at Arrowhead. Smells like a 44-9 game.

Any given Sunday, but we should handle these clowns easily. Probably best to keep Juju out one more game (if he’s given clearance).

Rest everyone that's even remotely hurt . . . . . . . get rested up and healthy for the real game the following week.

Time for some payback . . . . . . .

Paper Champs.

Chiefs should have beat these clowns in the Super Bowl.

I haven't been to a game since before COVID so a beatdown of the SB Champ will be a nice reward for attending this game. Can't wait!

I just don't predict blowouts anymore but this one does kind of scream 35-14ish.

LAR has had 13 different linemen start this season, and we know what that's like.

The Rams are giving up the 7th most QB pressures and they are 31st in the NFL running the ball. Also, I've watched the Rams play a little bit this season, and yeah, their OL play is dismal. Tragic, even.

The defense still has a number of elite players, and as a unit they're top-15 vs. the pass and top 10 vs. the run. Top-15 or so pts/gm. They must be a sieve in the RZ, because it doesn't look like anyone is throwing or running for a lot of yards against them, but they've given up 31 to the 49ers, and 27 each to the Cards (led by Colt McCoy) and the Saints.

Of course, with the Chiefs' luck, they'll get back a couple OLs and one of their RBs will have his one great day vs. KC.

But, KC will win this one handily, imo.

KC is a 14pt favorite to open.

To put that in perspective Buffalo is -10 over Detroit.

The Rams are old and injury prone, they got their ring and imploded.

The Rams were MUCH better last season. Wouldn't have been easy.

I'd love to see a blowout and our starters sitting out the 4th qtr

Has a defending Super Bowl champion ever been a two TD underdog?

The Denver team after Horseface retired maybe?

The Tampa team after they won with Gruden was pretty bad the next year.

This Rams team is bad, bad, bad. They are lousy.

Not only are they lousy, but they are hopelessly lousy. Like, this isn't even the kind of bad where you have a bunch of young guys getting coached up to win someday. This is a bunch of multi-year vets, all of them expensive for years and years beyond this season, collectively playing like ass and have checked out on the season.

Let's keep this really simple. They are on a four game lose streak, straight out of their bye, and have averaged 16 points in every one of those games. The Chiefs are averaging nearly 26 points a game since their bye, and are on a three game win streak.

How are they going to score on us? They can't protect their QB (3rd most sacks in the NFL surrendered), their offensive line is horrific, they don't have a single receiver with over 430 yards receiving on the year. (Kupp is on IR.) They have, arguably, the league's worst running attack. It's possible we keep them in single digits. It's possible Matthew Stafford doesn't even play this week due to the concussion protocol, but it's the Chiefs and I assume he'll "heal" faster. Their backups are John Wolford and Bryce Perkins, who looked like ass this week.

Their defense looks incredibly dysfunctional right now, but their only hope is that it snaps together and creates some turnovers and scores. But: (a.) their defense has zero defensive TDs this year, and (b.) they are a bottom three NFL team in turnover differential, and (c.) they literally have the lowest pressure rate in the NFL. Mahomes with time all day in the pocket? He could go for 50.

They have a Top Two defensive tackle in Aaron Donald, a Top Five LB in Bobby Wagner, and a Top Five cornerback in Jalen Ramsey (even though he's not playing like it -- dude has checked out). But this scheme is going to get roasted everywhere else.

Their only hope, really, is that the Chiefs are beat up and Aaron Donald goes off for 5 sacks, two of which create fumbles they return for TDs.

This was looking like a really tough game before the season started. Right now, it's looking like our easiest of the season.

Winning 52-10 wouldn't surprise me if the Chiefs gave a shit. Since they don't, and Reid/Spags are going to keep it vanilla, Chiefs will sleepwalk to a 35-17 win.

The Rams are very close to going into a period of being awful for like 7 years.
